Vineyard Mental Asylum

Chapter 18

I walked, not looking back. The war dog on his chain in my hand. "George." Doctor Little looked at me. "Go home." I nodded quickly running to my car with Brutus. We got in the car and I booked it home.

We got there, safe and sound. I looked at Brutus. "C'mon boy, go rest." I patted his head before he headed off to his own little dog bed. Brutus was a lot of work, but I loved him. He was such a sweetheart. He circled around and around until he was comfortable then plopped on the bed that was ten times smaller than him. "I really need to get you a new bed." I sighed plopping onto my couch. He whimpered, almost like he new what I was saying. I opened my eyes, Brutus wasn't in his bed, I got up, sounds of barking and gunshots. "Brutus!?" I shouted, running outside to go look for him. There was Doctor little with a shotgun, shooting someone. Brutus was smart, and stayed by Doctor Little. All of a sudden I hear a scream. "I got em!" Doctor Little shouted. I recognized that scream.

It was Carl's.

We all ran over to him, he stayed there, motionless. "He's dead!" I shouted, looking at doctor little. "Ah, well, George..." He turned to me, "Take his body and take it to the hospital, act like it was an accident."

"Sir I can't-"

"You do as I say." He said sternly. "Y-yes sir." I picked up Carl's body and took it to the hospital. Here's a sum of what happened:

He got inside, they announced him as dead, I kinda cried while calling Violet, Emily found out and cried, Rebecca was pissed, and i've never seen a dog cry... But Brutus did. Doctor little arranged a funeral while I went through his box of things. I looked over at Emily and set the box on her bed. "Take whatever you like, but you don't have to take anything." Emily reached in the box and pulled out a golden heart locket.

"Carl, is it true you murdered your father, mother and sister?" I asked. "I didn't kill my sister!" He shouted angrily, "It was my father!"

"Save it!" A witness shouted, "I saw you! You took her locket from her body!-"

"Shut the hell up! You didn't see anything!"

"Carl!" Carl looked at me. "You will be sentenced to..."

I shook my head. "You can have it, but take care of it, it was really important to him." Emily smiled at me. "Thank you!" Tears rolled down her cheeks. She thought it was only a gold heart, but Brutus walked over to her and picked it up, he cracked it open for a second she thought he broke it, but she realized it was a locket and inside that locket was a picture of his sister and him... "Sh-Sheś so beautiful..." I sighed. Doctor little smirked.
